Hello there lovelies! My name is Katie! (But you can call me Kay if you prefer!) 💖

in Introduce Yourself
Hello all!

My names Katie, but I usually go by Kay to my friends or family, so you can call me whichever you prefer!

My pronouns are she/her 🥰

I’ve very recently came out as Pansexual, and it was the most relieving thing ever, it feels like a weight have been lifted off my shoulders, one I didn’t even realise I was carrying around sometimes!

I’m 24! So maybe one of the oldies on here haha

I’m currently studying Level 3 Counselling skills, and I plan on studying my Level 4 in September! Afterwards I should be qualified as a counsellor!

I have an amazing boyfriend, (together 9 years this year) and we have two tuxedo cats who are our babies 🐈‍⬛

I’m a massive nerd and love playing video games and watching anime, but I always get so embarrassed admitting to the later hahaha

Lovely to meet you all! <3

    Hi Kay :​) it's nice to have you here, I'm Apollo and I'm eighteen, I also love cats and video games.

    Glad you could come out as pansexual, you're always free to be yourself here but its great you don't have that on your shoulders anymore.

    Hope you enjoy it here as much as I do

    Welcome Katie! Lovely to meet you too. Hope you’re okay!
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    @lovemimoon hi there! Yeah it feels like a massive relief but it’s also the beeeeeest feeling like you have a bit of security because you’ve finally found your label!

    Ooooooo I don’t know many people that watch video games without playing them themselves! What do you like to watch? 💖

    @Azziman thank you! I just get so embarrassed hahaha. The stereotype that it’s all for kids and that people who are into it “can act a bit weird” is what makes me shy away from ever admitting it in real life. I can’t lie tho, One Piece has legit been my saving grace in some parts of my life 😂

    @kaypoppit Horror gameplays that I rarely watch cos I'm pretty much hiding in the comment sections. :joy: A coupe of RPGs there and then, indie games, etc.
    What about you? What have you been playing?

    @kaypoppit sadly I don't have any cats, and I barely ever even see them in person, I've only pet a cat twice but they're so cute and I love them, but I do have a hamster. Her name is Jessie and here she is

    When it comes to games my favourite games are Outer Wilds (not to be confused with The Outer Worlds) and games like Breath of the Wild, what about you?

    Oh not at all! I've heard a lot about One Piece but not got around to watching it yet :) my favourite anime that I've watched recently is OreGairu - definitely not what I expected, but absolutely loved it! have you seen it? x
